SMITH eUsssD up sERENeLY
When He Heard His Deserted Wife Was ar
Heiress-But He Got Left.

LyNCHBURG, Va, NAV lS.-A case was
practically decided in the circuit court, Judge
Horsely presiding, Tuesday morning, which
probably has no parallel in Virginia iurisprrI-
dence. The facts are briefly stated as fol
lows: In 1879 James Dolan, proprietor of
the Rose Cottage nursery died, leaving a
widow, who subsequently married James Nc
Gowan. who was for many years one of
Lynchbnrgs most prominent citizens Mr.,
Dolan left n daughter, who married Mr.. II.
f. Smith, who ;ifteI some time deserted her,
leaving All infant child Mrs Smith removed
IL New York, and after seven years had
''laI Used during which time she had not seen
her husband, she had the right, under the
laws Of that state, Ia presume that he WIS
dead, and accordingly she married ii man
ualued Richard Dorliey.
Mrs. Mct1pwaI, the mother of Mrs DuTney,
died, ieas wing her husband IN charge OF the
property, without having made any arrange
mentS for Its division among her heirs. Her
husband subsequently died, and now the
anomaly is presented of two husbands claim
ing one wife and all the property, she in
herits from her parents; for no sooner was
MI. Mcfiowans death announced than Smith
put III his appearance and clainel his share
of the property, though he had not been pre-
viously heard from Tor more than seven
years. Mr.. Dorney. considering himself the
legal husband of the lady, resisted the claim
OF Smith, and upon this issue the case came
up for trial before the circuit court The de
cision was practically that Smith, by the de
sertion of his wife, was not entitled 10 any
share in the valuable property involved, and
that the marriage to Dorney in New York is
valid After this decision the plaintiff sub
United to non suit, and it is impossible now
to say whether or not the casa is ended. It
